Our sensors are installed all along the blade surface up to the tip, directly measuring the impacts of operations in any section of the blade.
Smart sensors for comprehensive rotor blade operations insights
Reducing production losses, while extending wind turbine component life-time
- Increase the energy output by reducing downtimes
- Lower running costs
- Extending the life-time of wind turbine components
- Secure System – always measuring whether the turbine is rotating or not
Why eologix
Reliable detection anywhere on the blade
Safety ensured even during turbine stop or idling
No third party data (SCADA data) needed in order to work
Fully automated operation
What you can do with eologix sensor systems
Blade condition monitoring directly on the rotor blade surface
Ice detection | Temperature measurement | Pitch misalignmnet
eologix offers (retrofittable) sensor systems for early and exact detection of ice accumulation and pitch misalignment based on wireless, flexible, smart and energy-self-sufficient sensors installed directly on the surface of rotor blades.
Up to 80% less downtime
Exact ice detection reduces the downtime of your wind turbine by up to 80% per year - Highest safety and lowest possible losses at all times during operation
Extend the lifespan
Icing on the rotor blade results in a temporary imbalance, which accelerates the fatigue of all components - this can be prevented by an ice detection system
Ensure safety
Ensures that service technicians and any trepasser is safe in any turbine operation mode
How does it work
What others say about us
Ing. Fotios Chitzios l Technical Operation Manager STAWAG Energie GmbH, Germany
“The eologix system is uncomplicated and easy to install. The technology is simple but of good quality and does a very good job. The system reacts quickly and very precisely. An additional positive effect was the good project cooperation with eologix the support was very good.“
Daniel Nagel l Technical Operations Manager GLS Beteiligungs AG
“We have chosen the eologix sensor system because it measures directly on the rotor blade and therefore ice detection is faster and more accurate than with other comparable systems.“
Christian Herwig l Project Manager Renewable Energies Mainova AG, Germany
“Technically, it is an exciting product, as eologix is the only supplier that measures directly on the blade surface and can thus determine the icing condition. The more accurate and sensitive the ice detection system is, the higher the optimization potential of the individual plants is.”
Meteotest (2021), Comparison of four detection systems of rotor icing installed on the same turbine, VGB Research Foundation, project 401
“[…] eologix would have stopped the turbine approximately 2.5 times less than the VBS.” (Vibration-Based Systems)
Meteotest (2021), Comparison of four detection systems of rotor icing installed on the same turbine, VGB Research Foundation, project 401
“[…] the eologix system was most often the first IDS to detect the presence of light icing, it would have been the last to stop the turbine.”
Ing. Gerold Katzer l Head of the AAE Power Plant Park & Energy Management AAE Südwind Strom GmbH
“The eologix system works perfectly and provides the best information about the condition of the blade in case of ice formation. When it comes to which system is reliable, I would definitely fully recommend the eologix system – I would choose time and again the eologix solution.”
Robert Lotter | Managing director Viktor Kaplan Muerz GmbH
“In short: we are very satisfied with eologix.”
Dr. Thomas Burchhart | Digitalisation and Innovation Manager VERBUND Green Power GmbH
“Each company has to decide for itself whether to measure based on vibrations or directly on the rotor blade surface. However, it is nice that eologix carries out a precise measurement and also measures the thickness of the ice layer accurately.“
